Non-PRO (2): GILLES MEUNIER, mchd
When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
Proposed translations
exigence
is the translation of "For instance, in response to the requirement to state goals and objectives..."

So the whole sentence would be "Offre en réponse à cette exigence".

I also found this expression (just to help you with the whole sentence)
"Appels d'offres" which seems interesting... Please see this link

The above link also provides the term "exigence" which you need :))

: 'bids in response to this requirement" => you don't make a whole bid in response to "une exigence" - context?

: Littéralement, c'est exact. Contextuellement, ça peut être différent. Voir la discussion, ou "specifications" correspondrait à "exigences", mais "requirement" à "appel d'offres".

: same problem - a bid is the reply to "a request for quote" / "appel d'offres" NOT to "un besoin" // it's the "request for quote / appel d'offres" that will specify in more or less details what is required, but a bid is not a reply to "des besoins"

Discussion
on parle bien d'un appel d'offres, il me semble. (Je suppose que le terme "requirement(s)" remonte au temps où les administrations faisaient des "réquisitions".)

no doubts about it!
but the problem in this ST is that that meaning simply doesn't make sense - in RealWorld v1.0 a "bid" is a reply / response to "a request for quote" or "un appel d'offres" (no ifs, no buts, no maybes, unless in some alternative post-facts world ...); context is supposed to count for something?
So, back to square one, what I think is the most likely intended meaning is:
bids in response to a tender specifying / containing this [new/modified?] requirement.
but without more context, I would put that as no more than Confidence Level 1 (I don't do answers CL1 - CL1 is no help at all)
http://www.mccarthy.ca/fr/article_detail.aspx?id=4735
so most likely [given the practically nonexistent context] what is in fact meant is:
bids in response to a tender specifying / containing this [new/modified?] requirement.
Giving a full title of a document hardly counts as "the context", far more is needed to be reasonably sure of the answer.
